Trump will either

a) announce he's not running for reelection in 2020 due to health, family or a desire to return to the private sector, or
b) resign, if Mueller comes up with really good evidence of a Russia conspiracy.

Either way he's a one-and-done.

Why doesn't Bernie get flak for being a draft dodger?

There are very few cases where I'll defend Sanders, but I do believe he was too old when his number was called for the draft.

My prediction:

There'll be extreme political turmoil between now and then that may well result in mass street demonstrations damaging to one or both parties.

It promises to be very amusing.

If it wasn't for Sanders being the only other candidate running against Clinton (the others were simply sock puppets put up by the DNC) I would agree with you that talking this early is premature. The fact is though in the midterms we see a potential of candidates running. 2008's election was the start. I mean wasn't Obama Girl around after the 2006 midterms by a few weeks?

I recall there being an Obamagirl but I didn't give enough of my attention to mark down her timing.

At this point in 2006, it seemed that the 2008 election would be Hillary vs Rudy. In 2014, hardly anyone saw tRump as the 2016 GOP nominee or even a serious contender.

So I just think anyone trying to predict the 2020 prez candidates at this point when there aren't obvious front runners is just way too premature.

Predictions at this point?

Do you honestly believe that Biden can inspire Trump voters if the economy is going good and issues with North Korea and Iran are moving forward?

Too much footage of Biden touching children.
He was left alone because he was on Obama's ticket, and Obama was a media darling.
He won't get away with it without Obama to shield him, especially when Trump is the opponent, because nobody hones in on weaknesses better than Trump.
